A giant robot? Belial's seen bigger. She created her own world filled with the refuse of innumerable machines. Does anyone think that she needs to fear the punching bag of the Wild Arms series? If this mechanical monstrosity insists on calling itself the Fortress of the Gods, the only one Belial would apologize to would be Farmel for taking her name in vain...but one doesn't apologize to such lesser beings). In any case, Asgard is obviously durable, especially if he can access some of his invincibility moves. Well, too bad for Asgard that Belial's record-shattering speed and potent damage means that she's adept at killing quickly. Even should Asgard gets turns, his ST focused attack patterns will have problems getting around Belial's Distortion. Belial does look forward about adding some new scrap metal to Vandekaum!

The Fortress of the Gods stood imposingly on one side of the arena, his glowing eyes staring down at the mysterious master of space.

"I have seen and recorded your previous battles and have devised ways to counter them. You have no way to attack me now."

The mysterious woman smiled bemusedly at this proclamation. She then opened a portal above Asgard and dropped a tank right on his head.

...or at least tried to. Asgard had swatted the tank away with a Barrier Fist.

"I told you," Asgard intoned robotically while slowly advancing on the demon, pausing momentarily at each step to backhand away a tank "your attacks have no effect on me."

Belial for her part, never lost her smile. Had Asgard been human, this would have caused him some worry, but since he lacked such silly emotions besides loyalty to his masters, he continued on without pause until he was within punching distance of the demon and could strike her with a Barrier Fist, which instead flew right into a gap that had opened between them.

Having anticipated this Distortion in space, Asgard prepared to unleash a Barrier Storm. "Resistance is futile. This match is mine."

And then a train came out from the gap and smashed Asgard out of the ring.

Once the match was officially awarded to her, Belial teleported out of the arena, her enigmatic smile never dropping even once.

After a short pause, Ashley Winchester, one of the judges in this match, finally spoke.

"She's been visiting that parasol-carrying demon from Cirno's home world, hasn't she?"

Rudy mutely nodded.

Asgard: 7
